Here's a video our friend Max Welton did when he replaced the one-piece swingaxle boots on his Squareback: ''"we heated the boots in a pot of hot water and lubricated it with silicon. It also seemed to help to position the axle tube so that gravity is our friend."'' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsLRVdcLdz0 Also to add to the topic, here's what Max made as a swingaxle bearing puller: ''"I don't have the nifty VW tool to get the axles out of the tubes. But a quick call to PH and a little fabricating and we had ourselves a little puller. Used a couple of 10mm cylinder head studs and two pieces of angle-iron welded together into a box-section."'' http://www.ppvwc.net/forum/files/axelpuller_101.jpg
